Low-Pass Risetime Filter
PSPL5915 Datasheet
The PSPL5915 Low-Pass Rise time Filter is designed for use in high-speed
digital networks and telecom systems. The -3 dB bandwidth of the standard
filters is 0.75 * Bit Rate. These filters are a proprietary, absorption filter
design that has attenuation and group delay responses similar to those of
the Bessel-Thomson filter. Bessel-Thomson filters filter by reflection and
thus can cause increased bit error rates and eye diagram closure due to
multiple reflections. By contrast, the PSPL5915 filters by absorption. It has
excellent impedance matches and very good return losses, both within and
above the filter pass band.
